So... when I was in Highschool back in 2006-2008 I started playing maplestory. If I remember correctly there were only 3 worlds Scania, Bera and Bora. I wonder how much has changed since then and if anyone else has been playing since then

    Plenty of players still play. A lot has changed. Just play the game and talk to people in real-time and you'll find out soon enough what exactly is different now.

    Oh boy, I started in 2012 and there were like 15 worlds. The worlds got reduced to just 5: Bera, Scania, Aurora and Elysium, the last two being a merge of the least populated servers, and Reboot. Reboot is a special server with no Pay 2 Win mechanics, everything is gotten by merit (read:mesos) alone and have some other differences. Most areas have gotten revamped over time, plenty removed, Black Mage got released last year in November so there is a proper ending to the game. Getting from 10-200 takes a month or less if you ignore all questlines and dungeons, and like 2-3 months if you play them all (which I suggest at least once, they are good). You need several characters at at least 140 to make the best out of Link Skills and the brand new Legion and they both are mandatory for the high end bosses. There are plenty of new characters, at least 2 are released per year so there is plenty to choose from.
